In the white-noise limit current correlations measured at different contacts of a mesoscopic conductor are negative due to the antisymmetry of the wave function (Pauli principle). We show that current fluctuations at capacitive contacts…

We use the scattering approach to investigate the nonlinear current-voltage characteristic of mesoscopic conductors. We discuss the leading nonlinearity by taking into account the self-consistent nonequilibrium potential. We emphasize…

We study the effect of the domain wall on electronic transport properties in wire of ferromagnetic 3$d$ transition metals based on the linear response theory. We considered the exchange interaction between the conduction electron and the…

We develop a Luttinger liquid theory of the Coulomb drag of persistent currents flowing in concentric mesoscopic rings, by incorporating non-linear corrections to the electron dispersion relation. We demonstrate that at low temperatures,…

Persistent currents in mesoscopic metallic rings induced by static magnetic fields are investigated by means of a Hamiltonian which incorporates diagonal disorder and the electron-electron interaction through a Hubbard term ($U$).…

This is a review of the phase coherent transmission through interacting mesoscopic conductors. As a paradigm we study the transmission amplitude and the dephasing rate for electron transport through a quantum dot in the Coulomb blockade…

In a mesoscopic conductor electric resistance is detected even if the device is defect-free. We engineer and study a cold-atom analog of a mesoscopic conductor. It consists of a narrow channel connecting two macroscopic reservoirs of…

The dephasing time in coupled mesoscopic conductors is caused by the fluctuations of the dipolar charge permitted by the long range Coulomb interaction. We relate the phase breaking time to elementary transport coefficients which describe…

Superconducting mesoscopic devices in magnetic fields present novel properties which can only be accounted for by both the quantum confinement of the Cooper pairs and by the interaction between the magnetic-field-induced vortices.…

A discussion of recent work on time-dependent transport in mesoscopic structures is presented. The discussion emphasizes the use of time-dependent transport to gain information on the charge distribution and its collective dynamics. We…

1D-Coulomb drag serves as a platform for probing electron-electron interactions in 1D systems. Under the charge fluctuation formalism, the non-reciprocal component of Coulomb drag signal in mesoscopic devices is predicted to rely on the…

We present a discussion of the admittance (ac-conductance) and nonlinear I-V-characteristic for a number of mesoscopic conductors. Our approach is based on a generalization of the scattering approach which now includes the effects of the…

The theory of electromagnetic in nature new component of electrical current is suggested. In classical physics approximations for the cases of the free electron plasmas in semi-conductive media, the atom or molecular electrons of liquids…

We review the first experiment on dynamic transport in a phase-coherent quantum conductor. In our discussion, we highlight the use of time-dependent transport as a means of gaining insight into charge relaxation on a mesoscopic scale. For…

The calculation of the conductance of ballistic rings requires a theory that goes well beyond the Kubo-Drude formula. Assuming "mesoscopic" circumstance of very weak environmental relaxation, the conductance is much smaller compared with…

Coulomb drag is a transport phenomenon whereby long-range Coulomb interaction between charge carriers in two closely spaced but electrically isolated conductors induces a voltage (or, in a closed circuit, a current) in one of the conductors…

We use a novel technique to experimentally explore transport properties through a single metallic nanoparticle with variable coupling to electric leads. For strong dot-lead coupling the conductance is an oscillatory function of the gate…

Analytic results for the conductance of a molecular wire attached to mesoscopic tubule leads are obtained. They permit to study linear transport in presence of low dimensional leads in the whole range of parameters. In particular contact…

We develop a theory of magneto-oscillations in photoconductivity of multisubband two-dimensional electron systems which takes into account strong Coulomb interaction between electrons. In the presence of a magnetic field oriented…

When a biased conductor is put in proximity with an unbiased conductor a drag current can be induced in the absence of detailed balance. This is known as the Coulomb drag effect. However, even in this situation far away from equilibrium…
